Nope Matt Smith is already signed for another season

 

[happy hopping]

yes


no. Since you're a current sub you cannot get that pricing.

so that pricing is for ?? Brand new members only?

 

[Scherrman]

Yes, new customers only. It is a promotional price. If you switch to that package you would be paying $34.99. I'm not sure you'll continue to get your encore channels either. You may want to talk to one of the DIRT to confirm.

OK, where did you get the info?

BBC News - Matt Smith to return for new Doctor Who series

All over the internet. He is signed on for Series 7 to air in 2012 and 2013. So the real bad news is that after this week and the 2011 Christmas special, all we get is an Easter episode until fall 2012.

 

[whatchel1]

That's just fine with me but just some things said in the last epi made me think he was not going to be back.

Does Dish America include Sirius radio, or is that only with higher packages?

 

[cryptotech]

No Sirius or Dish CD music channels in any of the Dish America packages.

 

[stardust3]

Roku has pandora for "free" music, you can also create your own stations or pick from the list of genres.

 

[indestructible]

What about local channels? Do those come with Dish America?

Your local channels are included in DISH America. DISH America

 

[Scherrman]

Local channels are included and you can add the Encore movie package for $5 or any of the other a la carte channels Dish offers other than the multi-sports package.

I'm about to return my Roku back to Wally World. The navigation was slow, clunky and buggy.

You must've gotten a bad unit. I have had absolutely no problems with my Roku.

(Sorry about the thread jack)

It may also be related to the service as well. Watching Hulu on the Roku was particularly bad. Plus I didn't own a Roku 2, just the original Roku XD. Not being able to FF (instead of skip forward) while seeing the content as it was fast forwarding was also a deal breaker for me. It made it very difficult to find a particular scene. Do the new Roku 2 models have a better FF/RW search feature?

I've never used Hulu. But the FF/RW function works very well in Netflix and other apps like Amazon Instant Video.
